Machinery ù expensive to buy even when it is available. Its scarcity should cause farmers to take good care ofllt. No farmer would think of buying a new $5 hat, hang it up onja tree, and leave it there all wmer or even for a few days andjnightt. Yet aome pay up into tke hundreds •f dollars for a pièe of farm equljpment, and leav« it under a tree or In a field foi| weeks and monthi.

His real problem is to keep the weight of his body evenly distributed so that the line of gravity passes through his feet. It is the first lesson a child or young animal must learn in assuming an upright position. Children derive much pleasure and satisfaction from their ability to walk a wall or narrow curb or rail fence. It gives them a sense of accomplish ment when they are able to perform these feats without falling. Balance is important not only in physical posture and movement, but in dll the i«r(Sions bf1ife:“IttgrTsspeoially important iorchildren; as-well as older"' people, to learn to keep their balance, mentally, morally and spiritually. The life without religion is an unbalanced life. Man needs religion and the consciousness of God to keep him from falling under the weight of temporal cares. The Church provides religious instruction and spiritual inspiration for all who seek its ministrations. Uilir- ^ C H U B C H F O R ^ F o a THE cnh)^c i \\ IAV 'V\ TK .. and- bifpDofi-’iT: ®akd.

We i i'efer, of course, to our local fire department. They work '^ r the good of the town as a whole. ■ We are reminded of the fire here this week when the home of Parker Waynick caught Are.' Occupants being out of towti, had not somebody noticed the fire, before long the big house would have gone up in smoke. Many is the time that the firemen “get it in the neck”. Generally speaking, it is usually somebody who is not con cerned with the fire or who is not a member of the fire department. The man Who sees his property burn is gen erally the one who has the deepest appreciation of these noble-hearted citizens who risk their necks in taking care of somebody’s else premises—and often his thanks are ex pressed in a very definite way. Once In a great while, the local firemen get words of welcome praise. Yet they come far apart. So, we ask them to accept this little item of thanks for loyalty to duty and perseverance of Chief R. L. Frye and his corps of 26 men. In connection with fires ,there is no way for a person to t«ll just where the fire is located. About the only thing left to do is to phone the telephone company. Yet the com pany at this particular time is busy with other matters and can’t be too much bothered with pestering calls. It some system could be worked out, so that each person would ■know about where the fire is located it would help tremen dously. Over at Salisbury, for instance, they use the fire whistle with different blows on it to indicate the section of town In which the fire Is located. We do not know whether it would work here or not—but anyhow It Is another prob lem for the town fathers to mull over. TWENTY YEARS AGO In The Enterprise THURSDAY, JAUUARY 5, 1928 ....... C. J.

State College Hints ^ To Farm Homemakers By VERNA STANTON Assistant State Agent It is important to purchase sheets with care to be assured of complete satisfaction and long service. Labels on sheets and pillow cases give type of con struction, the size of the sheets, the size of the bed they are in tended for, and the size plilow for which the cases are Intended. Make sheet purchases wisely with a view toward long service and complete satisfaction. If home makers know their facts they can be confident of buying exactly the right sheets to meet their par- ticuar needs. The following Information is what homemakers should look for: What is the thsead count of a sheet? Thread count is the number of warp and weft threads to the square inch. The more threads to the square inch, the finer and smoother the sheet. Muslin sheeting is best for hard wear, for it is heavier and more durable. Percale ohoeta are lighter in FASTEST FlIER ON HOME FIELD INTO THE HOME "STRATOSPHERE” soars eight-months- old Michael Yaeger as his father, Capt. Charles Yaeger, hoists him aloft after purportedly breaking the supersonic barrier by flying a rocket-engine plane at almost 900-miles-an-hour. Mrs. Yaeger and Donald, 23 months old, are there, too, for n happy holiday in Rosamund, Calif. Washington reports say, that Yae ger made his historic test flight for the U. S. Air Force in a small Bell XS-1, taking off from Muroc Field, Calif. FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Question; What is the most de^ sirable weight for butchering hogs? Answer: While it is true that hogs can be killed over a wide range of weights, nevertheless hogs weighing from 200 to 300 pounds will generally prove most satisfactory for use on the farm. Heavy hogs generally yield a heigher percentage of lard. Care should be taken to select hogs that are well fattened out and that are free from disease. Hogs should be taken off feed at least 24 hours before slaughter,' al though they should have free ac cess to all the water they will drink. Removing the feed before slaughter facilitates slaughtering and results in a better bleed. Hogs should be handled quietly to prevent them from becoming excited, and overheated. Question: How old should a calf be before feeding it skim-milk? Answer; Extension dairy spe cialists at State college say if a calf is doing well at the end of the second week the whole milk can be gradually replaced with skim-milk. The change from whole milk to skim-milk should be gradual at the rate of about one pound per day, requiring eight to ten days to make it com plete. If the calf should show symptoms of scouring while the change is being made, delay any further substitution of skim-milk for whole'milk until these symp toms disappear. All foam should be removed from the skim-milk before it is fed. The dally al lowance can gradually be in creased until the calf is receiving sixteen to twenty pounds at six months of age. At .this age, skim- milk may be discontinued from the calf’s ration. However, on weight than muslin. They are not the best choice for hard usage. What is "torn size”? "Torn size” is the size of sheet before hemming. The sheet will run about Un' inches less than the torn size. That Is why a 108-lnch length is always recommended for a full-length bed. It allows for ample tuck-in and fold-over.. Never buy anything shorter than a 99-inch length for a full length bed. Feet will surely hang out at the bottom if you dol Sizes for twin bed (39 inch width)—sheet 72x108 inches; dou ble bed (54 inches wide)—sheet 90x108 inches; single bed or cot —sheet 63x108 inches. When buying pillow cases, a good gmeral rule is to buy a case that is two inches wider than the measurement around the pillow, and long enough to fall a few inches below the end of the pil low.

May. 1948 bring you Abundant Joy and Success!. E. C. MORRIS Question: What type of soil should roses be planted in? Answer: In many cases the home gardener has only a lim ited area of ground available. For that reason it may not be possi ble to select an ideal location for the rose garden, but if possible a placc should be selected where the soil is well drained and where the plants will be exposed to full sunlight for at least the greater part of the day. The best soil for the rose is a rich clay loam with a large hu mus content! This Ipant can be made to thrive, however, irt any fertile, well-drained, slightly acid soil. If the only available site has a tendency to be damp or wet and remains so, it will be neces sary to drain the soil. Tile drain age is best, but a ten-inch layer of cobblestones or coarse gravel laid in the bottom of the bed and in a ditch from the bed to a lower level will serve the purpose. It Is preferable to prepare the ground some weeks in advance in planting in order to have it firmly settled. Spade the soil to a depth of at least eighteen Inch es and replace about one-third of It with rotted cow manure. If this cannot be obtained, use a smaller quantity of another kind of manure.'

Davie county’s appropriation this year is $27,206, compared with |S2,S00 last year. The num ber of practices for which pay ments will be allowed have been reduced from. 14 to 8 practices, ■ and the payments also have been cut because of this reduction. The program, administered by the production and marketing ad ministration, is designed to as sist farmers in carrying out prac tices which will help rebuild and conserve the soli, and^Isb to pro duce more and better products. A M FAYMENTS „ WOKTH WHILEr ■ ' Last May and Juné the county office was notified to stop work In connection with the 1047 pro gram, since Congress had not ' made an appropriation. The farm ers also stopped carrying out soil building practices. In July Con gress made an appropriation of about half its previous amount, and the farmers began coopcrat- < Ing with the program again, IMPORTANT PKACTICE CUT OUT Many farmers in this county seeded at least one acre of alfalfa last year, "just to try It,'I , and many others had several acres because they were already sold on the practice. One farmer made the remark, "Alaalfa will ' soon take the place of lespedeza in this county.” This practico, which was brought into this coun ty last year, has been cut out for 1848. A total of 2,417 pounds of seed were Issued through this of fice under the purchase order plan, 1M7 KEPORTS DUE NOW Approximately 50% of the farmers in the county have not made a report on the soil build ing practices that were carried out in 1047. This report should be made Ímmédiaíéiy, and the ap plication for payment signed. Farmers who received lime, phos phate or seeds through the county office In 1047 are urged to report immediately whether or not the material was used in 1047. The county cohnmlttee, mem bers of the Soil Conservation Service, Extension Service and others, recommended the follow ing practices that have been ap proved for this county in 1048: 1. Liming materials. ($2.4S per ton.) This rate was 2.85 last year. 2. Phosphate materials. Includ ing slag and mixed fertilizers, on eligible crops. (|0.78 per CWT of 20%.) This rate was .84 last year. 3. Potash. (3.3 cents per pound of available K2.) , 4. Seeding winter cover crops —including vetch, Austrian win ter peas, crimson clover and rye grass. (Rates have not been an nounced yet.) 5. Oats and barley, or mix tures, seeded in the fall of 1047 not harvested. ($1.50 per acre.) (No credit for rye or wheat this year.) 6. Red, alsike or sweet clover disked or plowed under. ($1.50 per acre.) 7. Permanent pasture. Differ ent rates have been set for each kind of grass and legume seed. (Rates are cut from last year.) A total of 20,038 lbs. of seed were issued through this office under the purchase order plan last year. 8. Mowing pastures. ($0.50 per acre.) This practice was not in cluded in the last year’s program. The practice "terracing” and other dirt removing practices were ■ left'' out- this /year because of the extra expense that it took to inspect the work. The county office has prepared a county handbook for the farm ers in the county. This book con tains the approved soil building practices,, the specifications, rec ommendations and the amount that can be earned by carrying out the practice. Farmers will be given a copy of the handbook at the time they sign their farm up for 1048. They may do this now at the county office. COIMBINATIONS Forms for taking combination or divisions of farms are now available,. in _ the . jPMA - office. Farmers who have bought or sold land since last year should stop by the office and give the neces sary information for making a combination or division. All par ties concerned In the transaction should come to the office together. ROBBERS ARE CAUGHT IN SAFE JOB PULLED HERE ON DEC. 7 A1 Hartline, 38, of Troutman and Clyde (Bill) Fortner ,23, of Hlddenlte are being held in the county jail in connection with the robbery of the Smith-Dwlggins Motor company last December 7. Local officers state that they admit they got $472 in cash at the company. The $8,500 in bonds belonging to Holt Barney- castle which were stolen at the time the safe was broken open were uncovered in a “rag bag” at the home of Hartline, where he lives with his father. Local officers made the check on Hartline after it was reported that he had been arrested for carrying a concealed weapon, ac cording to Deputy Eaton. State Highway Patrolman Green also had the officers check with him about the pistol which belonged to Mr. Barneycastle here and the number found was the same as - that which was also taken from the Smith-Dwlgglns safe. Hartline is stated to have had a previous record of sentences. ’ Both of the men deny having entered the other places here, Foster-Hupp Feed Mill, Penning ton Chevrolet Co. and Mocksvllle Flour Mills. None of the money was recov ered. The arrests were made last Friday and Saturday. Promote Kim Sheek To Head Rotary Clubs At a meeting of the local Ro tary club. Rev. Henry Sprinkle, a member, made a motion that the club now endorse Kim Sheek, a member of the Mocksville club, as district governor. The club endorsed the Idea whole-heartedly and signified its willingness to support Mr. Sheek for the post. Ike Greer, the re tired governor, has resigned.

Timber ManaiKeihenf ' Pays Dividends By H. j. w a u A M s There has never been a better time to make a small forest pay. So much tim|>er has been cut in the past that a good price is as sured for lumber for many years to come. Besides providing lumber and other wood products, our forests build up the soil, conserve mois ture, and provide a home for birds and wild animals. They give us a steady supply of water and help prevent floods that gully our fields and wash our topsoil away. A forest will grow up much faster and bring more profit if the owner helps it along. The owner wants to have as many trees as possible of the highest quality. This means keeping the stand neither too thick nor too thin. A tall, straight tree, free of knots or limbs for the most of its height, gives the best grade of lumber. Close stocking produces such trees by making them grow tall and straight in order to get sufficient sunlight. Lack of light causes the lower branches to drop off, leaving the trunk of the tree clear of knots. As the trees grow larger im provement cuttings should be made to remove the crooked, dis eased, or pioorer trees, giving the (eratlMtd on pen 4) HAROLD ESSEX IS Television'#111 probably come to this sectidin of the country within the nfext three to five years, Harold ;Esesx, manager of the radio statidti WSJS, told local Rotarlans at ^ e weekly meeting last Tuesday, I "There are *now operating in North Carol^tai 88 AM stations at present, whlcli we think is too many and the economic factors will iron out many of them,” Mr. Essex said. The FM stations are growing, he stated, and will continue to grow. Broadly speaking, the FM stations are called static and sound proof. They do not eliin- inate both or either—but for all practical piyposes they may be called what they are. Mr. Essex was Introduced by Rev. Hardee, who was in charge of the program. Guests included F.

TWO DAVIE COUNTY RESIDENTS INJURED IN BUS-CAR ACCIDENT Thomas Pearl Dwlggina of .Mocksville and Mrs. W. A. Ellis of Cooleemee, sustained cuts and bruises an dsuffered from shock as the result of a bus-automoblle collision about a mile beyond Ca tawba college bn the Mocksville highway at 10:30 o’clock last Tuesday morning. In Mr. Dwlg- gins’ case the shock of the acci dent brought on a heart attack. Some local people who visited Mr. Dwlggina late ’Tuesday said he was resting comfortably and only complained of feeling sore. He Is expected to be released shortly. A 1047 Plymouth deluxe coach driven by Dwiggins was badly damaged. A rear wheel and the gasoline tank were torn off the car and the jacic and car tools Were hurled 50 feet. J. E. Tutterow, driver of the Salisbury bound Mocksville- Salisbury bus, told Investigating officers of the state highway pa trol he was paslsng a truck driven by B. W. Corl of Rockwell, when the Plymouth, which was imme diately ahead of Corl’s truck, sud denly made a left turn into a side road. He said he did not see Dwiggins make any signal, and hli bua struck the Dwiggins car in the side, near the rear of the car. The demolished car was hurled Into the ditch beside the highway. Mr. Cori also told the bfficers he did not see Dwiggins give a signal to turn. Mrs. Ellis, a passenger on the bus, was hurled forward from her seat and suffered brultet and shock. She was the only but pas senger to report injuries. Mrs. ElUs sustained a cut at the side of the head rfnd may have frac tured ribs. ■' The front of the bus suffered considerable damage from the im pact, and the windshield was broken. State highway patrol officerà said they had not completed their investigation. Sandra Reid, four-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Reid of Dobson, enjoying her first bus ride, was standing up in her seat at the time of the sudden crash. Her mother saved the small girl from injury by in stinctively grabbing her as the collision occurred. The two in jured persons are being treated at Rowan Memorial hospital. CIRCULATION OF COUNTY LIBRARY 22,5MINYEARJUSTÇLOSffi It is inventory season again, even in the library, and one of the few times when statlsties are interesting and excusable. "Com parisons,” they say, “are odious,” but to show progress sometimes they ore neccssary. The circulation, last year, from the main library has been 22,580 with loans to adults showing a slight margin. This circulation is an increase of 8,638 over last year, an approximate average of 1,882 per month. Fiction, of course, is away out in front in popularity, but again comparisons show that there has been a tremendous in crease in calls for non-fiction. particularly for travel books. Bi ographies are becoming justly popular. There are six stations in the county, which are visited at fre quent intervals and booka ex changed. No record is kept of loans from these stations. Every school in the county ex cept one is borrowing books. The teachers have been most coopera tive and energetic in getting and returning loans. They report en thusiasm and increasing interest in reading among their pupils. As a result of these loans, many young people from out in the county have become subscribers from main library. One hundred and eighty-one new subscribers have joined the library during the year. ' The reference work being doRe in the reading rooms should be mentioned: Poll«, penicillin, ny lon, plastics,' redwood, various types' of costumes, flags of China, Strauss operas, plays of 1048, United Nations, Dumbarton Oaks, religions of the world. Princess Elizabeth’s ancestry, history of drama, etc. The library has as sisted various groups and. organ izations in program material. A bibliography of race material was asked for from a resident of an other county. Eleven hundred and fourteen new books have been added, mak ing a total of 4,533 owned by the library. .....''The groundwork for a card cat alogue has been begun, and that is to be the big project for the year. It is the ambition of the library board to have the Davie County library up to date in every respect—and of course ad equate housing space is an acute problem' at this moment. In reviewing .the past year’s records, it is revealed that adults are the largest over-due fine payers. Your library is open every af ternoon and all day on Saturday. It is a pleasant place in all kinds' of weather; Come and visit It, browse around, read the maga- zines-and- n«wspapers.^~G«t-ac> r quainted with another of the ad vantages which your town 'and county are offering you.

Е№ПЖРШ8Е FAOSJ Boy 16, Kills Parents I Over Love Affair Son Signs Confession 1^0 Double Slaying Funeral services were held on 'Saturday morning at 11 o’clock at North Winston Baptist church for Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Everett Phillips, of Winston-Salem, who ■were killed by rifle shots Wed nesday morning about 11 o'clock. The slain couple’s' only son, Tommy Lee Phillips, 16, has sign ed a full confession to the double slaying of his parents, after being arrested with his girl friend, Bes sie Ruth Jenkins, in York, S. C., Thursday morning, where they went, after the shooting, to get married. The. boy’s story, according to officers, ran as follows: He and his father went into the woods near their home to do some shooting Wednesday Corn ing. When they returned to the house, Mr. Phillips, evidently having suspected that Tommy Lee was planning to leave home, accused the boy of having taken a wallet, some money and the key to the. family car. An argument followed, and the boy, after thinking It over for 10 minutes, went into the den to get his rifle. Shot Father As He Shaved He said his father was shaving in the bathroom when he fired the first shot, hitting him over the right eye. Mr. Phillips stag gered across the hall and into the bedroom, and Mrs. Phillips came to the bedroom door. The boy said he realized then, for the first time, that she would tell police who had shot her husband, ihot at her and hit her in the shoulder. (A friend told deputies "Wednesday night the boy was a /“’punk shot”.) Then, according to officers, the boy said he "couldn’t stand .nee- Ing them suffer” and decided to finish the job he had started. As his mother crawled out of the room, he stood in the hall and fired another slug into the top of his father’s head. Turning, he saw his mother trying to reach a telephone in the kitchen. He fired again and hit her in the mouth. He said he then left by the front door and walked around to re enter the kitchen by the back door. (He explained that he didn’t 'want to walk across hio mother’s ' body sprawled on the kitchen floor.) Hoping to make officers believe Mrs. Phillips had shot her hus- - hand and then committed suicide, the boy placed the rifle behind her head on the floor, got his clothes, locked the house and headed for town in his father’s car. No Emotion Shown The confession was given, ac-1 Blood splotches covered th e crumpled rug. He had been shot through the right eye. Woman's Body In Kitchen In the kitchen, Mr. Honeycutt found the body of Mrs. Phillips. She wore a nightgown with a light jacket, which had been heavily stained with blood. She had been shot under the left ear. A long stream of blood trickled across the kitchen floor to a .22 calibre gSlnglo-action rifle which lay near her head. On a nearby electric stove was a pan of half cooked French fried potatoes. In the bathroom, which opened from the hall, a blood-stained towel was found. Two false teeth and some fragments, believed by deputies to have come from Mrs. Phillips’ plate, were found on the floor. The rest of the house was in perfect order. A Christmas wreath was on the door, two Christmas poinsettias in the bed room. On the piano a book of piano music was opened to “The Happy Farmer Returns ' from Work.” The emotional display of Tom my Lee, the first since his arrest January 1 in York, S. C., came a few hours after funeral serv ices had been conducted for his parents. The break occurred dur ing a visit to his Forsyth county jail cell by the brothers ond sis ters of Mr. and Mrs. Phillips. The boy, who stayed in jail willingly during the funeral serv ices; showed no signs of emotion during the time appointed for the final rites, according to his jailer. An hour after the services were over he ate a hearty lunch. But when his uncles and aunts told Tommy Lee Phillips they were all behind him, he cried a little. It was at this first meeting of members of the elderly couple’s families and the youth since his arrest that they announced they had retained Roy L. Deal, Win- ston-Salem attorney, as defense counsel for their nephew. Double Funeral Held A crowd estimated by police at approximately 1,000 persons gath ered earlier at North Winston Baptist church for the double fu neral of Mr. and Mrs. T. E. Phil lips. The young boy stayed in his cell at county jail, at his own re quest. Sheriff Shore had previous ly announced that he would take the boy out of the jail only on a direct court order. ■-J!omTOy.JLee-waa..r£Rieafin.ted.i>t. the servlpw by the le-year-old girl he tried to marry a few hours after the double shooting, Bessie Ruth Jenkins.

KILLER IS CALM—Tommy Lee Phillips showed no signs ot emotion as he read a news account of the double slaying New Year’s Eve. Still dressed in his "wedding” suit, which nevet was used, Tommy Lee confessed that he shot his mother and father after an argument over some money his father accused him of stealing for a wedding trip. FIANCE TRIES TO SEE TOMMY LEE—Bessie Ruth Jenkins sits in the Forsyth County Jail, where she made an unsuccess ful effort to see Tommy Lee Phillips. cording to officers, without any. busy clearing two'aisles for the show of emotion. The boy re ferred to his parents as "Mama” and “Daddy.” The bodies of Mr. Phillips, a native of Yadkin county, and his •wife were found by George Hun- eycutt, a brother-in-law of Mrs. Phillips, Mr. Honeycutt told the shcriTf his wife tried to telephone the Phillips home several times Wed nesday nftei'noon but got no nn- swer. He drove to the home about .¡j;30 p.m. and found the house locked “airtight.” The keys were not in the doors. Mr. Honeycutt said ho returned downtown and obtained a key from Mrs. Gladys Hoots, wlio rooms with the Phil lips family and was at her work in a department store here, Mr, Honcycutt drove back to the Phil lips home, unlocked the door and ■discovered the tragedy. The living room was neat and in perfect order. A hall covered with blood spatters led Mr. Hon cycutt to the front bedroom, in \vhich Mr. Phillips, clad in over alls, lay sprawled in a pool of blood with his legs crussud. winding line of friends, sympa thizers and curious persons that filed past the two biers, which were placed in front of the church altar amid a display of floral dis plays that testified to the love and respect in which Mr. and Mrs, Phillpis were held by their friends and neighbors. Thirty minutes before the min isters in charge opened the serv ices, the seats were filled, except for the center section reserved for members of the two families, ‘ Crowil Forms Outside As a crowd began to form out side the church, unable to find seats inside, funeral attendants set up a public address system so that all might hear the one-hour service. Five police officers, detailed to handle traffic, reported cars parked for blocks around the red brick church. The lowest esti mate on the number of cars was 500, Another officer speculated thot "there would have been 5,000 people here,, if they hadn’t put an announcement on the radio that the boy wouldn’t be here.” Minutes after the service start ed, the crowd left outside started moving away. In 10 minutes, the 250 had dwindled to approximate ly ISO. People stood alone and in little clustèrs, for as far away as a full city block. Some neigh borhood residents listened from their front porches as Dr. C. Ex celle Rozzelle, pastor of Ardmore Methodist church, opened the fi nal rites "in the memory of this father and this mother, who gave all, expected nothing in return.” Rev. J. M, Hayes, çastor ifor the- slain couple, recalled that Mrs, Phillips, about 10 days ago, had told him from her hospital bed following an operation, that she wanted, more than anything else, a car in which she and the boy could attend church on Sun day when Mr. Phillips had taken the family car to'work. Rev. Mr. Hayes reminded his listeners that they should not “sit in judgment,” and that "God un derstands this terrible thing.” Says They Would Forglv» He concluded his remarks by saying, “I am certain that if this mother and father could speak to their boy this morning, they would say, ‘We forgive you, son’.” The last "Amen” was said as the noon whistle blew. The late comers who had filled the vesti bule hurried out the church doors. A crowd formed outside as members of the family, fol lowing the two coffins, filed tear fully down a sidewalk lined with sightseers. Bessie Ruth Jenkins, accompa nied by her mother and father, wept openly as she left the church. ■ Then, as members of the. fam ily entered their cars behind the two hearses, many persons In the crowd raced for their cars, de termined to beat the procession to Forsyth Memorial cemetery, where the double burial was to follow. Most of the cars failed to enter the procession. Eighteen drivers were parked at the cemetery min utes after the service was con cluded, Fifty-three cars followed the hearses. Another 35-40 parked on the highway below the ceme tery. Grave Service Brief Words said over the graves were traditionally brief, À cold wind swept over the low hillside of the' cemctery. Minutes after the family was seated, it was ail over, and thé cars lined up on the highway below raced for town, Mr, Phillips, a native of Yad kin county, was bcrn April 5, 1899, the son of T, J. and Sarah Hutchins Phillips.

C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 RADIO AND NEWSPAPERS The talk that Harold Essex of WSJS made at the Rotary club last Tuesday reminds us of some things that people are Interested in. The first thing is television is still some years away for this section. Only one station in the state, WBT, has made application for a television station'. The cost of erect ing a station, the inability to get subjects that will carry well—something other than a boxing match and special events—made a hard program to carry. The other broad casting stations are “still playing around the idea.” Already most of the stations have FM—and it is a more pleasant way to listen to the program in which you are interesbed. Mr. Essex criticized many of the programs which carry some free ad about some cough syrup, bowel remover, ad nauseum, and intersperse it with a little music. * That is the sort of stuff that buiTis us up. As Mr. Essex said, radio is only 27 years old and has many things to learn—and it is learning them in more than one way. He spoke of the things which people could have with no charge. Including the symphonic music. And he also told of the cost of the programs which really runs Into fast money, somewhere around $150,000 weekly for a pro gram to which people can listen without any cost. About the best thing we heard on the radio lately was this "Miss Hush” business—here money seems to run around like striking gold. I guess radio Is just like the newspaper, what you want to read is there, you can take it or leave it— just the same as.a newspaper. The main difference is that if you don’t get the radio the first shot, you don’t get a re peat. In the newspaper the news is still in front of you and you can read It at your leisure; EJECT IRAn Vit PROM RiNT DBCOMIROl NEARINO M O M ABomr Timber Management better ones a chBiice irtr fnster growth. The best time for thin ning is In the winter months when the trees are in a dormant I stage. Thinnings can be used for fuel ,wood, posts, or pulpwood. Whenever the crowns of even aged trees become crowded It is time to do a thinning operation, usually when they are 15 to 20 years old. The trees should be cut so that the crown of each tree has room to grow from one- third to one-half wider than It is at thinning tlmt. A swoad thin* nlng should be done when the trees again become crowded, usually S to 10 years later. The owner' of a forest must protect it as well as possible against fire, insects, disease and grazing. Kach year fire alone cost the owners of small forests 15 to 20 million dollars. Burhing kills many trees and weakens and slows 'down the growth of others, as well as destroying the fertile, moisture-holding litter on the for est floor, robbing trees of nour ishment and perhaps starting erosion. V Dreaded Bee Disease Found Present in N. C. Several cases of American foulbrood, a dreaded bee disease, have been found in the western part of the state, W. A. Stephen, extension beekeeper at State col lege, said this week. Th disease seems to be confined to the western area, Mr. Stephen said, since no eyidence of It has been found in several years through the eastern counties. At present ,the outbreak is not serious, and should not cause great alarm among beekeepers, he said. Examinations of a col ony should not be made except when honey is coming in, other wise robbing may begin, and dis eased bees may invade a non- diseased colony. Presence ot dead larvae is one of the most outstanding symptoms of the disease, Mr. Stephen said, Also a sunken, perforated cap ping of the brood is evidence. The larvae changes from a pur plish white color to a chocolate broWn and is stringy in appear ance. This symptom becomes ev ident when a toothpick Is stuck into the dead larvae, and upon removal a gluey thread clings to the toothpick, rr PAYS TO ADVERTISE ORDERED REMOVED FROM THE Detroit rent decontrol rearing After he allegedly caused a disturbance, war veteran Jack Widick (left, wit'i glasses) is shown wearing his discharge button, as the police approach.

STARRETIE TYPEWRITER SERVICE Statesville, N. C. Phone 380-J 108 West Front Street “ Sales Agent for Underwood Typewriters, and Sunstrand Adding Machines” « Do you ‘‘live to eat” or do you "eat to live”? There’s a lot of difference in those two state ments. Yes, we can do both—cer tainly we need to pay more at tention to eating to live. A num her of diseases can be blamed di rectly on the diet. Here are a number of vegeta bles rich in vitamin A or 0 or both. See that your family Is supplied throughout the year with these health giving vegeta bles. Leafy greens such as cab bage (the greener the better), let tuce (especially leaf lettuce) kale, mustard, turnip greens, spinach and others. It’s hard to beat sweet potatoes as an all around vegetable—in fact, sweet potatoes, corn bread and butter with milk isn’t a bad meal from a standpoint of taste or food val ue. Other vegetables to add are yellow corn, yellow squash, to matoes, carrots, green pepper and snap beans. You had better take advantage of the first warm, still day to spray your fruit trees, Use liquid lime-sulphur or oil emulsion ac cording to manufacturer’s direc tions. Ask your extension agen^t for Folder No. 62, “Spraying Home Fruits”. If you are growing excellent vegetables, don’t change, but If you are not, get out your pencil and write down these better veg etable varieties. Investigate now because the seed may not be available locally. Wilt tolerant tomato varieties are Pan-Ameri ca, Pritchard, Rutgers and Mar- globe. Garden peas—a new va riety called Wando is excellent. Logan and Ranger are two new varieties of snap beans. Two new lima beans, Peerle.ss and Early Market, are good. For the small butterbean type, it’s still hard to beat Henderson’s Bush. Try the Herring collard; you’ll like its appearance and flavor. If you live east of Reidsville, Salisbury and Charlotte, you should try one or two fig bushes. The be.st location for figs is where they will thaw slowly after freez ing. The south side of a build ing is not a good placc. Protec tion from cold, winter winds is lielpful. Figs- often stand tem peratures as low as 5 degrees F. without much damage. The main thing is to keep them from start ing growth and tlien being killed back by a sudden freeze. The Celeste is a good variety to plant. What To Do In the Garden Areas with average last frost around April 15 (Raleigh, Char lotte, Henderson and other Pied mont sections). Take the first op portunity to break your land, get ready for early vegetables. Plant onion seed and sets. You can take a chance and plant spinach, rad ish, kale and garden peas.

L. S. SHELTON & GO. KA1SER-FRAZER DEALERS ^ H. A. Lashmit L. S. Shelton WORK REFRESHED HAVE A COCA-COLA Tommy Leè Phillips, the 16- year-old who has confessed that he killed his parents Wednesday at their home near Winston-Sa lem, cannot inherit their prop erty. This was the consensus among the many attorneys who discussed the case informally—but spirit edly—at the Forsyth county courthouse. They pointed out that tne State Supreme • court, in a decision handed down in the Spring of 1941, decided just that point. “It is a fundamental maxim of the common law,” said the judg ment, "that no man should take advantage of his own wrong. Not only is the maxim based on ele mentary principles; it is firmly imbedded in our jurisprudence, and . . . it admits of illustratioris from every branc of legal pro cedure. Decisions Are Cited Quoting similar decisions from throughout the nation, the court cited one in particular from Ten nessee, “No one shall be permit ted to profit by his own fraud, or to take advantage of his own wrong, or to found any claim upon his own iniquity, or to acquire property by his own crime. These maxims are adopted by public policy, and have their foundation In universal law administered in alL civilized countries.” Nor, said the attorneys, would Tommy Lee's heirs be able to in herit, through him, the property of his parents. One’s misdeeds are not permitted to benefit his heirs. These principles remain in force, it was said, whether or not the boy is convicted of killing his parents, ■ Who, then, would inherit the Phillips estate? Here the discuS' sibn goes off into many technical alleys. The "Uniform Simultaneous Death Act” of 1947 provides for the disposition of the estates of husband and wife whose deaths must be presumed to be simul taneous, in the absence of satis factory evidence to the contrary. Distribution Explained Real estate, held jointly by hus band and wife (as the i Uhillips home was said to be held) would go half to the ''husBand's heirs, half to the wife’s, in case of si multaneous death. If there were insiirance policies naming alter nate beneficiaries, the payment would be divided into as many equal portions as there are “suc cessive beneficiaries,” and “these portions shall be distributed' er- spcctively to those who would have taken in the event that each designated beneficiary had sur vived.” As for insurance with one ben eficiary, ^the proceeds would be distributed “as if thè insured had survived the beneficiary.” That is, if Mr. Phillips had insurance naming his wife as beneficiary, his relatives would collect. If Mr, Phillips died first, Mrs. Phillips would inherit for the time —whether brief or not—during whicri she lived beyond his death. The homo would then gu to her heirs upon her death, and the personal property would be di vided equally between her estate and his parents. If Mrs, Phillips died first, both the liome place and the personal property would fio to his estate and then to his heirs. lOmiD UNNI ДиГНОИГУ or THf eOCA<OU СОМГАНУ 1У WINSTON COCA-COLA BOTTLING CO. .

It there was only one pair of rats in Davie county now and they were allowed to remain, within three years time the off springs from these two rats could exceed 380,000,000, says F. E. Peebles, county agent for Davie county. This may sound impossible, Mr. Peebles said, but the fact that one pair of rats can raise six or more litters per year with from 6 to 22 in a litter, this is quite understandable. Such a high birth rate proves how Important It it for every farmer, city resident and every one to control rat infestation on their premise!. Every dead rat means hundreds of othera that will not reach your farm, he de clared. Residents of Davie county will soon have a chance to par ticipate In one of the largest anti rat campaign! ever staged In this county. You will have a chance to buy poison bait, ready mixed and packaged for immediate use. Tills will be one of the ways in which you can help kill out the rats on your premises and at the same time help to control further infestation on your farm and oth er farms. Orders foi the bait may be placed at the county agent's of fice or you may get in touch with your county health official, but be sure to join in this fight against one of man’! most destructive pests. The time and places for you to place your order will be annotinced in the near future. After this bait is placed in the proper places on your farm to make it more accessible to rats, you will want to follow this up by removing sources of food, wa ter and shelter for the rats that were not killed from the poison bait. This will'mean a little ex tra work, but it will probably pay you more than any other Job you will do on your farm for the next year. Pointing out that practically every farm in Davie- county is providing excellent hiding places and wonderful sources of food and water for the destructive pests, Mr. Peebles declared that one of the best farm improve ment practices that could be con ducted on these farms would be, to rid them of rats. Now that every pound of grain Is so valuable and so vitally need ed to feed a hungry world, it should be the desire of every farmer in this county to conserve as much of it as possible. One of the best ways to do this wouldb e to get rid of the rata on your farm. They are destroying hun dreds of bushels of grain each year, and are making hundreds of bushels more unusable. . One of the most effective way» of killing rats is by the use of poison bait, Mr. Peebles said. Of course, this will not kill all of them, but it will control them. You will also want to follow bet ter sanitation practices by keep* Ing garbage and Kraps in rat- proof containers, storing food and feeds properly, and following any rule that will make food difficult for rats to find.

Mcllhenny, Avery Island, La., in 1892 placed eight young snowy egrets Inside a large 80-foot-quare cage con taining trees and watei, and fed them until the following autumn, when the cage was removed. The birds disappeared, only to return the following spring to nest. From two nesta that season, the colony grew into a large wildlife refui» ‘ known today as “Bird City”.

Care for a patient is a 24- hour job, and the average cost of a polio case today is estimated at $2,000.’’ So our quota is very small as compared to the cost of caring for a polio victim.

Suitable property has been ob tained in tiiese cities for setting up tile inspection lanes, and all tlie testing equipment will be Tn- stalled by the opening dates. Officials of the Department of Motor Vehicles, which will ad minister tho inspection program, aro urging all motorists in these areas to taite their cars in <’'jr inspection as soon as the lanes aro opened. It is anticipated that it will take around 15 minutes to inspect each vehicle as the program first gets underway. However, when inspectors become more experi enced, it will probably take only five minutes. The inspection law is a part of the Highway Safety act passed by the 1947 General Assembly. It requires that all motor vehi cles registered in North Carolina must be Inspected once during 1948 and twice a year thereafter. Motor vehicles include cars, trucks, trailers, semi-trailers, mo torcycles, and motor bikes. The program provides for the establishing of 40 lanes through out the State, four of which will serve as emergency or replace ment units. Opening dates for all lanes have not yet been an nounced, and it is not presently known how long those opening oh the '12th and 19th will remain in operation in theii* announced lo calities. The law provides that the lanes will be moved from place to place in order to reach all vehicle owners, and sometime during the y^ar, a lane will be sure to come near your town. In this series of articles, re quirements for .passing inspec tion will be explained.

Entered at the Post Office at Mocksville, N. C., as Second Class Matter Under Act of Congress of March 8, 1879 BATS Each, year the average family in Davie county must make preparation to kill off the rats. Bats, as everybody knows, grow In abundance and there Is only one way to get rid of them—just kill them off. We are pointing to the rat killing campaign, which Is seen in this week’s issue of the paper. Here Is a polsoh which will do the job. It Is sponsored by the county agent’s office. It is cheap and effective. It is one program in which everybody must be inter ested. Someljody goes without using the rat killer and the ilrst thing you know the rats are back on the job. For Instance, here In town rats grow to enormous size, ^wo years ago we put out some of the poison—the direc tions are .already on the bait you buy—and in the next couple of days we found rats as large as cats scattered around the house. Everybody knows the terrific damage which rats do— but don’t do much about it. They eat up everything around the cribs and houses. Unless they get into something which -we consider important, say meat for example^ people just let them alone. Yet the well-regulated home, now that they know what can be done, can easily get rid of them. ‘ It is a job that every home should take time out to see that the job Is done at least once a year.

Two out of every three violated traffic laws or committed unsafe acts which contributed to their deaths. And believe it or not—many of these fatal accidents actually happened less than six fefet from the curb—only a step or two from safety! Between intersection accidents accounted for more than one-third of all pedestrian fatalities last year. These victims carelessly rushed out from be hind parked cars, or simply jaywalked themselves into traffic—and death. Others even ignored the safety of lights and traffic officers at intersections to save a few seconds—and lost their lives. Never take safety for granted. Cross at intersections within the cross walks. Wait for the light or the policeman’s whistle. Be alert for the inc^- siderate driver making a right turn, or the reckless one beating a light. On open highways, allow for the speed of approaching cars. Walk to the left, facing trafRc. < Whenever you croan, look both ways. One step can be fatal!

Meatless, poultryless and now even a grainless day is contemplated. “Yet one important means of saving grain has been overlooked—storage of meat in lockers! “Animals are raised to a certain size, after which they reach peak maturity. From then on they continue to consume grain, a waste which the locker plant is designed to eliminate. "Milhons of tons of grain could l>e saved if, after meat animals have reached maturity, they were slaughtered and put into the nation’s locker plants. This grain could then be used in our national program. • ^ I “There aro over 8,000 locker plants in the country (not counting branch plants). They servo some four million families or over 15 million people, who in turn would benefit by moat now, in this ora of high meat prices. “The govornmont should give immediate consideration to a campaign to urge tlio use of looker plant facilities to store meat and to save further waste of grain going into useless feeding ot animals that liave reached maturity. "The locker plant system is the nation’s larder. It was designed to preserve and save foods and to eliminate waste.

A. McCallister, Route 1, Mocksville.• John Gray, assistant extension forester from State college, con ducted the demonstration. He explained the proper manage ment of woods ,and made it clear that forestry is a crop and could be quite profitable if it were properly cared for. One-fifth < V5) acre of 21-year- old short leaf pines growing In an old abandoned field was used in the demonstration. One-half of this area (1/10 acre) was used for a contest. Fifty trees were numbered and then the group went through this section and marked on a card the trees each person thought should be cut for wood and pulp wood. Clay Qai- ter, of Route 1, vocationar agri culture student In the Farming ton school, was high scorer, and will receive a plumb ax as prize. The other 1/10 acre was marked .and the most undesira ble trees were cut out. The cut wood amounted to an average of 11 cords of fuel wood and five cords of pulp wood per acre. Seventy trees were left on the 1/10 acre. This would give an average of 700 per acre as grow ing stock. There were at least 600 trees cut per acre for fuel wood and pulp wood. The rate of growth of the av erage tree cut showed a definite decrease during the past six years. Mr. Gray said this timber ■hould have been thinned six years ago. This was the first thinning In this woods. Mr. Gray said this stand of "thinned trees should be thinned again seven years from now.

C., FRIDAY, JANUARY 23, 1948 “AU The County News For Everybody”No. 47 INSPECTION UNES TO VISIT EVERY COUNTY SEVERAL TIMES DURING 1948 Raleigh. — Arthur T. Moore, head of the state’s mechanical in spection program, said that a great ■ portion oi the state’s citizens were needlessly upset over plans for the inspection progrann, He added that many hod the Idea they would have to drive several hundred miles to lane . headquarters for their inspection this year. Moore Sfid: “There . Is absolutely no need to worry, for we have emphasized over and over again that the lanes are port able and that they will be trans ported from county to county in order to reach all > motorists in the state.” He said he had had numerous queries from vehicle-owners in CraVeh and Carieret counties, who believed that just because headquarters for lane 33 had been set up in Greenville that every one in those counties would have to drive to Greenville for an in* speetlon. Moore added that headquarters for each of the state’s 36 inspec tion lanes were set up on the ba sis of motor vehicle population, and each lane was planned to take care of 20,000 vehicles within a given caunty, and in such cases there is one lane to service that county. However, in cases where' there were not 20,000 ifcgistered' vehicles within a given county, { tlji^n adjoining counties were ta ken In until the required 2Q,000 vehicles could be fotind. Headquarters were set up, therefore, in ^ounties with the heaviest vehicle population, but this does not mean that the lane will remain there all the time. It merely means that for admin istrative purposes the headquar ters were established there', but the lanes will be transported from county to county In order to reach all vehicle owners. And Moore added that no car or truck owner should worry, for a lane will visit each county several times during the year, regardless of whether headquarters are set up there or not. Citizens in some areas, partlc- ularly in the East, have become so upset, Moore said, that he had been beselged with letters and phone calls from irate citizens, and has even had letters from some Congressmen on the matter. Moore added that he had not {inticipated that there would be so much confusion and misunder' standing when he released to the papers the headquarters and the counties .each lane would cover. He added that he hoped the misunderstanding would be clear ed up because the inspection program was getting much crit- cisim because of it. He said resi dents of Burke county had been most displeased to learn that headquarters would be set up in Shelby to cover Burke and Cleve land counties. He added that cit izens in this area, as in all others, could rest assured that an in spection lane will visit Burke, as well as all other counties in the State several times during 1948. He further stressed that a mo torist could have his car Inspect ed at any lane he desired. There is nothing compulsory about where the inspection takes place, so long as the vehicle owner goes to one of the stations during the year.

Mrs. John Turner of route 3 is a sister. We have been urging parents to bring their children to the Health Department to have them vaccinated'against common com municable diseases. These vac cinations are free, will take very little of your time,.and offer ad equate protection against serious childhood diseases and danger ous complications in future years. Yesterday I went Into a home In Davie county and saw a lit tle Ijale four-year-old boy lying on a couch. When I inquired nbout him, his mother told a story o{- whooping cough a year ago which left the little fellow in such a weakened condition that now he is an easy prey to colds ond other respiratory diseases. This mother’s trouble could have been avoided and the child’s health protected by a simple vaccina tion for whooping cough. Do you have a child in your home over four months old who has not been protected against diphtheria and whooping cough? If you have, take him to your family doctor or bring him in to our clinics and let us help you protect his health. General clinics are as follows: Mocksville — "Thursday after noon and Saturday morning. Cooleemee — ’Tuesday after noon.

SeufA: WHY PAY MORE AND GET LESS NEW TIRE DESIGN AIMED AT GREATER SAFETY ON CURVES A now kind of tiro, designed for added safety on curves, swervM uid turns, has Imn developed as a result of sur- v m of the National Safety Council and other safety groups which have pointed out the high ratio of automobile accidents on curves. « sensational new type of tire, known as the Davis developed by Davis Tire engineers, and will Im av^Ulable to the public in Western Auto Stores and Associate Stores beginning the week of January 25. Information from the National. Safety Council and-othcr groups emphasize these three important facts concerning ctirve safety; (1) Sach year 183,000 persons are killed or injured in accidents on curves and turns. :2) Each year accidents on curves kill six times more le than blowouts.peopli aa y®*** dangerous skids are involved in 24% ofall highway accidents. This new **Curve Safety Tire** has nine engineered fea- tureh for greater safety, all designed to aid in the national campaign lor safety on curves, turns and skids. Recognizing the fact that the outside tire ribs become the important gripping ribs on curves and swerves, Davis Tire engineers concentrated their research on this all-important rib. From this research and development emerged a system of * curve grippers.” These patented curve grlppers are nearly invisible periorations in a chevron arrangement on the out- side rib, Each tire contains 1036 of these "invisible” curve grlppers. The eurve-grippers are closed tight on straight roads to insure long normal-tire mileage. On a curve or turn the gripp- ers automatically open to scrape off moisture and slick road film, thus leaving a dryer path for tread grip. Labroratory tests showed that on a 250-foot radius curve at 40 milos-pcr-hour the outside rib alone suffers a grueling sideways force of approximately one ton. The patented curve grippers are designed to retard skidding caused by this side ways pressure even on wot and icy road surface. Mass production economies allow the sale of the Davis Curve Safety Tire without a premium price and each tire is sold on a written two-year guarantee. George Rowland, owner of the local Western Auto Asso ciate Store, invites everyone to come in and examine this phenomenal new advancement in tire construction.

KIM SlIEEK FOR DISTRICT GOVERNOR We notice with much pleasure that Kim Sheek will be a candidate for district governor of this Rotary district, which contains 31 clubs. Of course we know that Mocksville has not had a Rotary club for a long time and this fact may stand in the way of full succor to his aid. Yet the club has done a fine piece of work and in the organization of it Kim has played an important part. Here is a man who likes people and who enjoys working at It. It might be well to mention some of the things which he has had a hand In: he is southern sales manager of the Sealright Co. of Fulton, N. Y., an infantry officer in the First World War, county chairman of the first Salvation Army drive, president of the Dixie Flyer’s and Supplman’s South ern Organization, which has a membership of about 600, former member of thé local school board, county chairman of U.S.O. drive, former county chairman of the basket com- mlttee of the Masonic picnic, assistant coach of the Ameri can Legion baseball team, steward in the Methodist church and the first president of the Rotary club. From this experience shown above, it is seen that he has the wherewithal to handle the manifold work of being a Rotary executive. Aside from the other matters he can make a good speech—something of a charm in an individual. We would like to suggest to the various Rotary clubs that they consider Mr. Sheek for the post. You will find something of a newcomer on the job, who will enjoy it and will do much towards helping the 191st district become an Im por^t Rotary factor. ASHEVILLE SCENE OF N. C.

Farm Homemakers By VERNA STANTON Assistant State Agent One of the appetizing qualities of tomatoes is their bright color. Keeping that color in cooking or canning is important because it makes this valuable food tempt ing. Here are some color-saving tips from, cookery scientists 6f the U.S. Department ot Agriculture; 1. In preparing and cooking tomatoes, keep them away from iron or steel, ■ except stainless steel. The acid in tomatoes com bines with the iron and changes the color. 2. The faster the cooking thé better for keeping color. Long slow cooking darkens and dulls color. 3. Take care not to scorch to matoes on the bottom, bccause tliis turns the color brown and psoiis flavor. A heavy bottom on the pan helps against scorching as does an asbestos mat under neath. Stir frequently wltli a wooden spoon to keep the solid part o£ the tomatoes from settling and scorching. 4. For seasoning tomato relish like chili sauce, use whole spices, tied in a bag, rather than pow dered spice. Tlie bag is removed before the relish goes in jars, but powdered spice stays in and dark ens the relish as it stands. 5. All spice, black pepper and cloves impart a dark color to tO' mato relish; paprika and cayenne pepper increase the bright color; cinnamon, mustard and celery seed have little effect, either way. 6. Store canned tomatoes, tO' mat'o juice and tomato relish in a dark dry place. OlVES VIEWS ON FOOD QUESTION APPEARING BEfORE the Senate Foreign Relations Cominittee in Washington, Secretary of Agriciiiture Clinton P. Anderson- is shown as he gave his views on food problems. He told the legis lators that the possible resumption of rationing or price controls within the next 15 months will not be the result of exports under the Marshall Plan. No meat wÿll be shipped to Europe during thé first two years of foreign aid. rears His Mate In-'spideriand, the male is the weaker of Hhe sexes. He usually is smaller than his mate and v^ry much afraid of her. His fears are well founded, for it is a common procedure for the .male to serve as a meal for his spouse, Their Real Vie Because of the spade-like form ation of moose antlers, it is a popular notion that the animals use them in clearing snow from their winter “moose-yards.” The antlers are used only for fighting, and are dropped at the end of the fighting season.

With the shirt shortage still continuing, the bride-to-be will be wise to master expert laundry technique that ,Avill make the most of her future husband’s sup plies. An easy way to achieve a satny dirt-resisting finish that Avill win male compliments, is to dissolve a quarter of a cake of a specially prepared wax-like product in each qpart of starch. This expert trick insures the. iron against stickng and puling dff- culties that threaten tears to those hard to replace shirts. This waxy substance also makes it possible to iron shirts before they are entirely dry, so there's no need for the chore of sprinkling.

Days To Re-Enlist Those men who are honorably discharged from the Army or Air Force on or after January 1, 1948, will have a grace period of 90 days instead of 20 to remain out of service before losing their right to reenlist at the rank held when discharged, according to an announcement made by M-Sgt. O. F. Anderson of the Army and Air /Force Recruiting office in Winston-Salem. Sgt. Anderson said that com missioned and warrant officers of the Army separated on or after January 1, 1948, also would be given a 90-day grace period be fore losing their right to enlist in the Army as, a first or master sergeant. All Air Force officers and those Army officers desiring to enlist in the Air Force are not included in this new plan as grade authorization must be obtained for them individually.

He said that men who are not eligible to reenlist at their former grades, due to their re maining out of service beyond the grace period, may apply for a non-commissioned rating based on their . previous military experi ence.

Vehicle registration card shall check with serial, motor and li cense number on vehicle. Opera tor’s and chauffeur’s license card shall be legible arid for the cur rent period. Vehicle license plates shall be displayed in the intended and lawful manner and shall be securely fastened to elim inate swinging. They shall be! legible, visible and present an entirely unobstructed view. They shall be flat and shall not be cut or in anyway multilated, and dis played at place provided under the light for illumination at night.” Col. L. C. Rosser, commissioner of motor vehicles, emphasizes that it is especially important for every car owner to have his li cense within the given period him when he goes for inspection. No vehicle will be approved un less these vital certificates are In order. If any driver whose last name starts with A or B takes his ve hicle in for an Inspection, and that driver did' not renew his li cense and registration card with from last July 1 through Decem ber 31, his car or truck will be disapproved until he gets a new driver’s license. The vehicle registration card is especially important, in view of the fact that it often helps to re cover stolen cars. Before you take your car in for its "physi cal check-up,” be sure to' check the motor number and see that it is the same as the motor num ber listed on your registration card, Watch nest week to learn what requirements the horn must meet. are: $400, first prîtes 9100, second prise: IÙ , third prise.

THE PENALTY WILL GO IfiTO EFFECT ON FEBRUARY 1948 And We Urge You to Pay Your County Tax Before That Date and Avoid a l%Penalty R. V. ALEXANDER County Tax Collector « :Farmers Are Receiving High Prices For Milk, Specialist Declares Tar Heel farmers are now re ceiving the highest cash income from milk in the history of the State, and 1947 réturns are ex pected to exceed, by a substantial an nint, the 1946 record-breaking total of $29,974,000, aays J. A. Arey, in charge of dairying for the State College Extension Service. The growing importance of the milk industry to the State’s econ omy is further evidenced by the new peak value of $39,896,000 set on North Carolina’s 361,000 milk cows which produced a total ofl 693.000,000 quarts ot milk in 1948. Annual milk production per cow averaged 1,921 quarts. Expanded utilization of North -Carolina milk as fluid milk for . drinking and cooking has in creased the overàll value of the State’s milk output, as farmers receive their highest price for 'milk used in this form. Latest annual figures for North Caro lina show butter production at . 1,561,000 pounds, American whole milk cheese at 1,142,000 pounds and ice cream at 16,3^4,000 gal lons.

COUNTY'S RURAL PROPERTY SHOWS HUGE VALUATION Farm property in Davie coun ty Is now worth more than $6,- 564,000, and rural homes here and throughout the state are in the best'condition in history, ac cording to a report just released by the Tile Council of America. More than 75 per cent of farm dwellings In North Carolina and the South are in excellent condi tion or need only such minor re pairs as painting or general main tenance, the report revealed. Only 61.1 per cent were in good repair In 1940. The report was based on Bureau of the Census surveys. "The rise in farm incomes and property values since 1940 has been accompanied by a great in crease in the number of rural homes equipped with such mod ern conveniences as electric lights, tiled baths and sho\yers and running water,” said F. B. Ortman, phairman of the council's residential construction commit tee. Electricity, for instance, has gone-into hundreds of thousands of the nation’s rural dwellings since 1940, Ortman noted. More than 89 per cent of all farm homes now have electric lights, in con trast to 31.3 per cent in 1940. More than 32 per cent of rural dwellings in the United States today have running water, and 20.1 per cent have private baths, according to the Tile Council re port. In 1940, 17.7 per cent had running water and only 10.6 per cent private baths. JANUARY 31 IS CLOSING DATE FOR FILING NEW TOBACCO ALLOTMENT January 31 is the closing date for filing an application for a new-grower tobacco allotment.

Farmers who do not have a to bacco allotment and plan to plant tobacco this year, are urged to come to the PMA (AAA) office and file their application this week. Only farmers who meet the above requirements will be eligible for an allotment. CLUB MBET8 The Davie Wildlife club will meet Monday, Feb. 3, at the court house, states Paul B. Blackwel- der, president. All interested persons we urged to attend. Kenneth F. Hoots of Davie county has fared forth to prote the possibilities of better land use and! thereby has joined the ranks of modem ploneerr who know the key to successful farming. Recently the young and mod ern farmer said: “When our hills were being slowly but surely moved into the streams we used to see hard rains come with dread. We like to see them come now because it means moisture which will soak in to make bigger crops. I look back now and wonder why we haven’t sooner had our eyes opened to what we lost every year.” We were standing at the time in a 35-acre field of alfalfa which had a considerable slope to the land, “Right here,” . Kenneth con. tinued, “we used to plant corn with the rows run straight in stead of on the contour. Many, many times 1 have seen every row middle washed down at one point or another to the hard, un' broken soil during one rain.” OLD AND NEW IDEAS Kenneth has been farming with his father for several years and, as he expressed it, “sort of grew into the farming business.” At one time he worked a little on a part-time basis with the Soil Con servation Service in assisting the local district. It was partly the oMervatiras’* made while doing this work for the district and part ly the experience his father had with some conservation methods used on another farm which he owns in the vicinity of the home- placc, which prompted Kenneth to want to go further into the possibilities of safe land use. Mr. Hoots, Sr., who Is 60 years old. Is one who Is cautious about making changes, Kenneth said most older people are inclined that way, and continued: “Maybe you've heard about Uncle Josh building the schoolhouse. Well, Uncle Josh contracted to build a new schoolhouse, agreeing to use the old bricks from the present building to construct the new one, but at the same time the contract provided that the old schoolhouse Could not be torn down before the new building was ready for use. “This sort of reasoning applied to farming is one reason why we don’t have more people doing bet ter by their land, their families and themselves. They are just not willing to turn loose the old methods until they’ve proved a better system. That is about as impossible as the story about Un cle Jpsh and the bricks. It stands to reason that we must stop one way before we can test out an other.” With the conservation work started on the other farm showing promise, Kenneth's father agreed to turn over to him the reins of management on the homeplace and that he might see what con servation would do for It. This 211-acre farm had 175 acres in open land. Of this, 145 acres were in crops such as corn, all with the rows run just as straight as possible. “Much of the land," Kenneth said, “was just about ready to be turned out. We had managed to grow about 20 bush els of corn or 10 bushels of wheat to the acre. Oats were some times not good enough to har vest. At any rate you would have had to lather them In order to cut them.” , OLD AND NEW LAND The land on the Hoots farm to- day appears to have changed from old to young instead of the nat ural change from young to old. Walking over the hills we saw no active washing—Just a scar here and there where the old wounds had been healed. “We grew this year, after four years of conservation farmtog,” Kenneth explained, “at much corn on five acres as we ever grew on 30 acres before.” The old land Indeed appears to be growing yotmg. A iotal of only ten acres of corn was planted, and five acres of this was cut for silage. The com harvested from , the remaining five acres averaged 128.25 bushels to the acre, and had to be shucked before it could be housed in the com, crib. A 14x30-foot silo was filled from the five acres cut. “Vn>en 1 was planting this com thick in the drill and in narrow rows my fa ther was doubtful ot iny sanity. He Isn’t doubtful any more.” ' Xenenth has 60 cows and is now milking 30. A niimber ot hogs are also kept, the idea be ing to have enough livestock to consume the feed the farm will produce. “I’m ot the opinion,” Kenneth said, “that we can feed as many as 100 cows without too much trouble. In fact, I’m doubt ful about only one thing. 1 really doubt if we have even yM probed , deep enough into the ÿoairikùlties ■ of better use ot soil and water.” Certainly it takes a lot ot water to' produce 180 bushels of corn to thé acre. It has been esti mated that it takes SO gallons of water to make just one ear of corn. “It sort of makes me shud der,” Kenneth went on to say, “when I think that bushels and bushels of corn and other crops are swept down-stream with wa ter which comes from each big rain on land where no provision has been made to take care ot it.” Kenneth Hoots is yet young, but he is deeply concerned about land wastage and about wastage of water which runs pell-mell down the slopes of unprotected fields, and which might have added to crop yields it it had been held where it feU. He is concerned about the plant food also which this uncontrolled wa ter floats away—plant fojod and water which might otherwise bring comfort and security to thousands of families wherever the land is tilled. “There is no estimating,” Ken neth said, "how far-reaching ^ these possibilities might be. Many farms have been abandoned and owners brought to poverty be cause of erosion and by loss of moisture.” Here on the Hoots farms there Is a vista spread before us which gives assurance ot well-being both now and in the future. Al falfa, ^rain and clover spread a blanket over all the most sloping fields—plants made healthy and strong by food and moisture held on land to give it protection. The old land on the Hoots farm be comes young again. ' RECEIVES HONOR Miss Peggy Montgomery, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. H.

FARM NEWS The supply of corn and small grain will probably be shorter during 1948 than we have expe rienced In a long time. This should be a challenge to farmers of Da vie county to increase their pro duction of both corn and imall grain by increasing the yield per acre. I would suggest five steps to increase corn yields: (1) Use an adapted N. C. Certified hybrid corn, white varieties; N. C. T-20, Tenn. 10, Dixie 17. Yellow va rieties: N. C. 26, N. C. 27, U. S. 282, N. C. 1032. (2) Use fertlli zer to suit your soil conditions, 200-500 pounds of 4-8-8 or 6-8-6 per acre or well prepared seed bed. (3) Try to get good stand by using seed with high germination and plant in 3^ foot rows with lS-20 inches in drill. (4) Ci|lti- vate shallow until corn is 2H feet high, then stop cultivation. (5) Sidedress at 6-8 weeks with some form of nitrogen. A good crop of spring oats can be produced provided they are seeded early, fertilized well at planting time and top dress with nitrogen. All small grain should be followed by lespedeza. Lespedeza seed are scarce and high, therefore if you don’t have your seed let me urge you to secure them as soon as ppssible from some local man. There are seed available in the county at the present time. For any fur ther information on the things mentioned see your County Agent. flue to whiff off tha «пока?

H. Darst director of'the State Department of Agriculture seed laboratory, has warned farmers to guard against misbranded or miBrepre- sehted hybrid seed corn. "The Tennessee 10 and Dixie 17 corn hybrids have given excel lent results over a large area of the south,” Darst explained, "and their popularity has led to the possibility of misbranding and misrepresentation.” He explained that the inbred lines involved in the production of these lines, as well as Tennes see 14 and 15 and Dixie 44, have ’not been released for conimorcial production by th southern ex periment stations. "Wlien the first crosses involv ing inbred lines for these hybrids are released to seed growers by thè Foundation Seed Producers associations,” Darst said, “it will be with the agreement that the seed crops shall be certified. Such seed are usually sold in scaled containers and always bear n state certification tagi "It would seem quite obvious that any of these hybrids sold as such without certification tags and the seal of a state certifying agency would be misbranded,” Raleigh, N, C.—Motorists, how good is the horn on your car or truck? Now Is the time to check-up on it, for when you take your ve hicle to one of the state’s new motor vehicle mechanical inspec tion lanes this year, that horn must measure up to specific re quirements, or your car or truck may not "make the grade.” According to the list of speci- catlons printed in the Manual on Motor Vehicle Mechanical In spection Requirements, the horn “ shall be in good working order and capable of emitting a clear sound, audible under normal con ditions at a distance of not less than 200 feet, but no horn or oth er warning device shall emit an unreasonable harsh sound or whistle." Col, L, C. Rosser, commissioner of motor vehicles, emphasizes that the horn is one of the most important safety mechanisms on a vehicle, and that every thinking I motorist should make sure his is in good condition at all times, not only to insure passing the in spection, but "for safety’s sake.” If the horn on your car or truck cannot be heard from a distance of 200 feet, better take it to the nearest garage or service station and have repairs made before you visit the'^ Inspection lane.

Experimnit Station Releases Bulletin E^erlments conducted by two North Carolina sdentlsts pròve that rotational grazing on native ranges Is not practical. Results of the experiments con ducted have been released in a bulletin by the North Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station. H, H, Biswell, of the South eastern Forestry Experiment Sta tion, and J. E, Foster of the Ag ricultural Experiment station, conducted their experiments at the Blackland Branch Station from 1942-1944. Though the tests were hampered by wild fires, enough experimental lands were unaffected to complete the expe riments. The study was designed to test Iwo kinds of rotational, grazing and compare their results to those of continuous grazing. One set of plots was grazed continuously,' a sccond set was grazed for 28 days then rested for 28 days, and a third set was grazed only until mid-season. In their conclusions, the authors state that the three systems of grazing gave about the same re sults. There was “no appreciable difference in forage density, or changes in grazing plants due to the grazing systems.” Further more, the cattle gains were about the same under all three systems. “As long as rangs are moder ately grazed, farmers should feel free to use them in the most con venient way,” the authors con clude. "If, however, extra labor, fencing and watering p:aces are needed for rotational grazing, then continuous grazing would be more practical.” The new publication, which is designated Experiment Station Bulletin No. 360, is available free 'OOOD OMEN' BRINOS FOOD PLEDOE PRESENTING PRESIDENT TRUMAN with a "crazy dog" good omen necklace.

The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi neers, Brotherhood of Locomotive Fire men and Enainemen and the Switchmen’s Union of North America, 125.000 railroad employes, have refi___ to accept the otTer of the Raihroads of a WMe Increase of l5yS cents an hour. This Ш the same increase awarded 1,000,000 non-operating employes by an arbitrntjon board in September, 1947,This is the same increase acceptcd by 175.000 conductors, trainmen and switch men by agreement on November 14, 1947. Agreemuntg have been made with 1.176.000 employes, represented by nine teen unions. But these titree unions, representing only 125,000 men, are trying t6 get more. They are demanding also many new working rules not embraced in the settlement with the conductors and trainmen. Incidentally, the Switchmen’s Union of North Armorica represents only about 7% of all railroad switchmen, the other 93% being represented by the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen and covered by the settlement with that union. Strike Threat The leaders of these three unions spread a strike ballot while negotiations were still in progress. This is not a secret vote but is taken by union readers and votes are signed by the employes in the presence of union representatives.When direct negotiations failed, the leaders of those .three unions refused to join the railroads in asking the National Mediation Board to attempt to settle the dispute, but the Board took jurisdiction at the request of the carriers and has been earnestly attempting since November 24, 1947, to bring about a settlement. The Board on January IS, 1948, announced Ita Inability to reach a mediation settle ment. The leaders of the uniona rejected the request of the Mediation Board to arbitrate. The railroads accepted. What Nowt having refused to arbitrate, the Railway Labor Act provides for the tlil^resWent“ " board by The raihroads feel It Is due shippers, passengers, employes, stockholders, and the general public to know that through out these negotiations and in mediation, they have not only exerted every effort to reach a fair and reasonable settlement. but they have also met every requiremont of the Railway ^bor Act respecting the negotiation, mediation, and arbitration of labor disputes, II seems unthinkable lhal these three unions, representing less than 10 per cent of rsUread •mplojret, and ihoM amMf the klglMsI hM. can sHCMs^l7 flie thrMi of a H t- dyslni strike af^asl Ihe Interest of Ike an- Ure country—and against 90 per cent of tkeir fellow emplojres.

Press Association, held at the University of North Carolina and Duke. J. M. Roberts, Jr., of New York, foreign affairs analyst of The Associated Press, was one of the speakers. Mr. R«berts said there w e i s no immediate danger of war with Russia. He analyzed the situation as follows: 1. The “cold” battles we are now waging on the eco nomic and political fronts may in the long run prove just as vital as were those of Midway , and Normandy. 2. Victory in the “cold” battles now being waged may be the only way to avoid more blood letting. 3. We are now in the midst of power politics which the speaker hoped are “temporary things”. Mr. Roberts said—and this is an important thing— that there was arising in the world today what he called the “grass roots of moral power”. Prom it may arise the power of the people In the world who are disgusted with war. \ The hospitality of the University of North Carolina and Duke was the same old story of good affection and fine cheer. One of the speakers at Duke ,was Dr. Thomas Clark, president of the Southern Historical Association- and pro fessor of histoiy at the University of Kentucky. He is now In the process of writing a book on the country editor and his subject or comment on them was: 1. The main difference between the city and country papers was that the modest countryman was satisfied with a statement of plain, homely facts, while the matron de manded a half column of flattery and hypocrisy. 2. In rural correspondents from the crossroads stores and country church, the editor generally told the corre spondents to send everything—make It short, refrain from disturbing religious groups, use the dictionary occasionally and avoid predicting the death of a neighbor just because Jie is sick. 3. Country papers In their advertising use the old stand-bys, such as Peruna, et cetera—may the good Lord help us. s 4. The country papers carlred much real or implied humor. For Instance, a womim was being baptized Into the Baptist faith. The pastor was one who believed In deep Immersion* The candidate was soaked three times—but It ftaied to work. Finally, It developed that the girl had a woodm leg. She finally gave up the faith, joined the Pres byterian, when IV was found that she would have to get her cork leg perforated.

Machinery Riipein High On Many Farme Farm machinery costs on many North Caroliiia farms are great er than the cost of the equipment when new,, says Brice Ratchford, in .ctiarge of. Extension Farm management at State college, and most of it is due to inexperienced operators. Since the cost of parts and la bor is so high at present, the spe cialist said, farmers who use hired labor as tractor drivers should make every effort to get Intelligent and competent drivers who have an understanding of machinery and like to operate it. It is important that the driver like his work so he will take a greater interest in the equipment and try to keep it in good repair! because a repair bill often takes all the profit on'^ farm. The operator on the farm, in addition to getting a good driver, can initiate a system of system atic checking equipment at in tervals. While making these checks, he may catch many de fects in the machinery before they become too serious and costly. Farm operators can afford to pay high wages to a good tractor operator, Mr. Ratchford declared. If trained tractor operators can not be procured, then the owner could very well spend time and money in training tractor drivers — it will save on repair bills later on.

J*"«"' I N T H I S T I U or T H I И 1 6 Н Т A M A M D IE Ù He had worked late—he was tired—thoughtlessly he walked to the right along the darkened highway. Beyond the turn of the road were the lights of home. Speeding through the early darkness, a driver urged his car along, hugging the edge of the road. A dim shapd, a sudden sicken ing jolt — and the terrorized driver, his car careening, sped on — around the curve, past the lighted cottage beside the road. And in the still of the night, a man died. These are the ingredients of accidents and death at night. Often the victim contributes to his own death by not walking to the left, facing traffic. But far too many pay with their lives for the reckless driving of the hit-and-run car coward. To him self-preservation is more urgent than the saving of a life. To his kind let this be a warning. Of all highway and traffic vio lators, the hit-and:run driver fares worst. Sooner or later, his crime leads to prison and disgrace. The h^kways shall be cleared of these auto highwaymen. immAY, JANUARY 30,1948 THE MOCKSVILLK (N. С.) ENTERPRISE FA C »e PERSONALS- CLUBS Mr. uid Mri. C. A.

State College Hints To Farm Homemakers By VERNA STANTON Assistant State Agent The present trend toward small er bedrooms, built-in double bunks for children and lower beds may save expense in build ing and furnishing but adds to thè time and effoi't spent on bed- making, housing specialists of the U. S. Department of Agri culture remind home-planners. Making beds by pullman-porter methods is too strenuous for many women, but is unavoidable with some of the new space-sav ing bed arrangements, the spe cialists point out. At least 18 inches clear space around three sides of the bed is needed for convenience in making. If a bed must stand In a corner or alcove It should be equipped with good ball-bearing casters so that it can be rolled out for making or for cleaning the room. The height of the beds Is also important for convenient mak ing. The higher beds of a gen eration ago had at feast one ad vantage—they could be made without stooping. Beds that stand 20 to 24 inches from the floor require much less effort to make them than the newer low beds. Moreover, higher beds aré handler when caring for a sick member of the family. The height of hospital beds is good evidence of this. YOUR HEALTH DEPARTMENT By CARL E. 8 B IIX . We have been urging you to protect your family against com municable diseases by immuni zation. That Is only one of the many ways that we seek to con trol diseases. , In order to understand diseases and their causes we must learn to think in terms of a new world of living organisms called bac- tera; too small to be seen without a microscope. These organisms are all around us—all over our skin and clothing ond everything wo touch. The air is full of them. Not all of them, however, are dangerous. Most of them are harmless and ’ many are benefi cial. But since we ore not in a position to distinguish between the harmless ond pathogenic or disease causing organisms, we must be continuosly on guard. We used to think diseases were caused by evil spirits, damp air, and the like; but now we know that each disease is caused by definite pathogenic organisms commonly called germs. In fu ture articles we will tell you of some of tho ways these germs may travel from a sick to a well porson and how to protect your self aganst them. In the meantime, remember our clinics; Mocksvillc, Thursday af ternoon and Saturday morning; Cooleemee, Tuesday afternoon.

If the men or children in the family happen to track tar, road oil or asphalt into the house and you find black marks on rugs or floors as a result, remove marks promptly. The older the stain, the more difficult it is to remove. And for these stains use cleaning fluid (grease solvent) not soap and water. On carpets and rugs scrape off all the block possible with a dull knife. Then sponge with the cleaning fluid, using a light brushing motion in order not to rub the stain into the fabric. Sev eral light applications, using a fresh colth each time, may be necessary to get out all black traces! To remove these marks on waxed floors, rub with cleaning fluid on a soft cloth. Then re-wax because the fluid removes wax as well as stain. SPARTAN FEEDS, MOCKSVILLE FLOUR, BARRETT ROOFING, BIG STOCK NAILS, ELflCTRIC IRONS, ELEC TRIC TOASTERS, EMERSON RADIOS. BIG LINE DISHES.

' FARM QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED Q. How often should a dairy cow be watered? A. A good dairy cow requires a large amount of water. The I milking cow needs considerably more than the dry cow. When one consders the fact that normal rriilk contains about 87 per cent water it is easy to understand why a cow producing a large quan tity of milk must have a large : quantity of water. A cow pro ducing 40 pounds of milk in a day needs approximately 120 pounds of water or about 3 pounds of water for each pound of milk. The supply of water should bo pure, fre.sh, of a medium tempar- ature and convenient so that the cow’s production will not be re'- stricted by under consumption. Watering oncc a day is not suff- cicnt. A heavy producing cow cannot drink enough water at one time to supply her needs for a day. This is especially true in the winter when the water is very cold. Probably no investment in barn equipment pays greater div idends than that made for indi vidual drinking cups or a good concrete water trough located in a convenient place where the cows can get fresh water as often as they desire. or, if they are encountered un expectedly and no weapon Is at hanfl, crush them underfoot. Trade at roach-free stores. For immediate elimination of roaches in tight rooms, there is nothing better than a thorough fumigation by a professonal fum-! igator. Fumigations are expen sive, however, and in congested areas, where reinfestation is apt to take place quickly, the expense is seldom warranted. In more' loosely constructed buildngs the' fumigant usually escapes so fast that the eggs of roaches, protect ed in the egg capsules ,are not killed, and in a second fumigation about 3 or 4 weeks later may be necessary. | Crack fillers, such as putty, plastic wood, or plaster of Paris, can be used effectively In closing many openings'used by roaches as avenues of escape to hiding places. Those cracks and open ings can bo located by watching tlie roaches run for concealment. THI STARS LOOK UP AND DOWN Q. How can I prevent the in festation of roaches in my home? A. One of the best ways to pre vent roaches from becoming es tablished in a home is to watch carefully all baskets or boxes of food supplies and laundry brought into the house. Roaches hide among packages and about'clo thing and are frequently carried from place to place. Kill these stray roaches with a fly swater. State Collegie Hints To Farm Homemakers By VERNA STANTON Assistant State Agent It is good common sense to shrink woolens when making clo thing articles of wool say exten sion clothing specialists. A new wool dress or garment that hasn’t had the pre-siirinking process is very likely to come back from the cleaner’s several sizes too small in the wrong places. Labels usually indicate wheth er or not the material has been pre-shrunk. If no label indication is on the goods, it is better to play safe and do your own shrinking before making a garment. Many conflicting directionii have been given for shrinking wool at home, but recent tests by clothing specialists show pres- . Max Aronipn, known ai '*Bron> cho Billy,'* wai the tin t moving picture star. His first film appear ance was n 1903, in "The Great Train Robbery." A COUPLE OP STAR PLAYERS look up tensely as four-star General Omar Bradley glances down and prepares to make a toss for the jump between little John Cassidy (left) and Charles Barberi. The youngsters are members of teams at the East Side Settlement House in New York and were thrilled when the prospective Chief of Staff dropped in. sing the entire picce of wool with a steam iron is a simple and sat isfactory method. Care must be taken to hold and press with the weave and not to stretch or pull the wool in the process. A wide ironing board makes this easier. If you don’t have a steam iron, it is necessary to dampen the wool thoroughly and then press it with a moderately warm iron under a press cloth. Rolling the wool in a damp sheet is a simple way to dampen it. Allow it to stand in the rolled sheet overnight and then press on the wrong side. with a dry press cloth with no pulling or stretching. To starch a shirt, gather it up so that you can dip all the parts to be starched—the cuffs, collar and front—in the starch at the same time. How thick a solution? That depends on the individual’s likes. However, shirts should never be starched "board stiff.” It will crack the fiber threads and cause the shirt to wear out much faster. iTae An Enterprise Want Ad Building Materials In Stock Kiln Dried Finish Knotty Pine Paneling Pine and Cypress Siding Pine and Oak Flooring Winddws—Door» ROW Window Units Steel Sash—Steel Door Frames Finish Hardware—Paints Tempered Masonite Briclc Siding Insulated Bricii Siding Fiber Plaster Ohio Finish Lime IVIctai Latlie Plywood Disappearing Stairways Composition Roofing Galvanized Metal Shingles Aluminum and Galvan ized Roofing Cement—Brixment Masonite Tiieboard, Enamel Finish Heatiiator Fireplace Units If your Mocksville Dealer cannot supply you with the above we shall be glad to furnish your needs.

You should make sure the foundations of your house go deeper into the ground than the greatest depth to which the soil freezes in your locality. Other wise the wet ground under the foundation will raise the weight above it when it freezes and low er the house when it thaws, caus ing the structural members of the house to crack. ____800 PfOPtC A9t KlUfO OR M> , JURIOIV M V OAY-ON CURVtt AlONi/ fP lOM Miroeufic lnvMtfciiavi oewHBt OM s «« TOM im ON A Vie An Enterpriso Want Ad ■ome Owned and Operated by GEORGE ROWLAND MockivUle, N.
